Now hiring

Yippee!! We're advertising for a physics teacher to start in September.

As I mentioned previously, we've been short staffed this year because a teacher left but wasn't replaced. We've had 2 chemists and a biologist filling the gaps which hasn't been easy on any of us, and to make matters worse one of the chemists has been off since october with major family trouble so we've had a cover teacher (also a chemist) filling in for her. That cover teacher has been off sick for the past fortnight so HoD has been covering for the cover teacher. Phew!

We've been warned by senior management that they consider physics to be one of the best departments in the school(!) so when the inspection happens they will be steering inspectors in our direction. That's very flattering, but also a bit of a worry.

It'll be lovely to have a full complement of physicists again, especially since a lovely teacher I worked with at a previous school is thinking of applying. I have my fingers crossed that we get someone awesome!
